    Tailgate handle

    Who makes the best replacement tailgate handle? I ordered one from Summit, I think it’s a Holly maybe…. It’s not even close to the original. Way thinner and about 1/4” narrower

    Silencing electric fuel pumps

    Has anyone ever put some sound deadening/dampening material on their gas tanks? I was wondering if a small chunk of dynamat on the top of the tank would reduce some of the fuel pump whine. I'm in the middle of my frame off build & noticed how loud they are while the truck is idling, I suppose...

I even thought of taping and painting in stripes where the factory trim should be. Anybody out...

    4x4 Rally wheel center cap finish and decals

    I bought 2 new rear rally wheel center caps with the 4x4 logo from the dealership back in 1997 and I cant remember for the life of me if they were shiny chrome or satin finish with some chrome accents... All of the aftermarket stuff I've found seems to be fully chromed. When I go to restore...

    12 Bolt Diff cover options

    So the factory sheet metal cover on my 12 bolt rear end is bent and mangled on the bottom, I'm guessing from poor jack placement. I started shopping and cant seem to find any heavier covers that are factory looking and made from stamped steel. My 10 bolt front has a real nice 11 Ga or so...

    New Here from N.E. California

    Hello, just joined from from N.E. California. I'm getting ready to restore my 1980 K-10 Custom Deluxe, it was my first car at age 16 I daily drove it until about 2007 or so when I bought the wife a Yukon Denali & got to take over our 2006 Duramax. The poor truck has been sitting since 2008 in...
